Landyn Torres was right about one thing: ascending in that plane indeed meant that the Campbell Sect would take him in, but a slight mishap occurred—Yusuf Zuck wasn't initiated through the usual procedures; instead, he was whisked away by a disciple of a disciple of the Alchemy College Head of the Campbell Sect.
It wasn't exactly nepotism—rather, the College Head's grand-disciple, using his lowly status, forcibly took him away, wanting just a menial worker, a slave to toil for him.
"Still the sixteenth disciple of the Alchemy Dean's student? No wonder you're so miserably poor, but you're also quite old!" Yusuf Zuck cursed continuously in his heart. Why was he so unlucky? He had thought that after merging with the Book of Life, his talents would be decent, so after his ascension, he would surely be heavily relied upon.
Yet he hadn't expected to be directly taken away by this old bastard.
